The Spin

This incident is an unfortunate tragedy that Israel will thoroughly investigate. Demonstrators threw stones at Israeli forces, forcing them to respond with live fire. Unfortunately, those in the immediate vicinity of violent protests will inevitably face risks.

Eygi was one of many foreign nationals who Israel's war machine has ruthlessly murdered for standing up for Palestinian rights. Israeli forces fired a single bullet, long after any stone-throwing, making it clear that Eygi was intentionally shot in the head. Much like Israel's killing of activist Rachel Corrie in 2003, the US has already shown that it will not hold Israel accountable for killing one of its citizens.
